Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points: 3P and 6B. PM5PP5BP4BS1_SupportingBS2

The NM_015836.4(WARS2):​c.37T>G​(p.Trp13Gly) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00359 in 1,613,944 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 22 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 15/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. W13R) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected
WARS2 (HGNC:12730): (tryptophanyl tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial) Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases catalyze the aminoacylation of tRNA by their cognate amino acid. Because of their central role in linking amino acids with nucleotide triplets contained in tRNAs, aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are thought to be among the first proteins that appeared in evolution. Two forms of tryptophanyl-tRNA synthetase exist, a cytoplasmic form, named WARS, and a mitochondrial form, named WARS2. This gene encodes the mitochondrial tryptophanyl-tRNA synthetase. Two alternative transcripts encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
WARS2-AS1 (HGNC:40612): (WARS2 antisense RNA 1)

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points.

PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr1-119140608-A-G is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 1947813.
PP5
Variant 1-119140608-A-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-119140608-A-C is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 440915.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.0043417513). . Strength limited to SUPPORTING due to the PP5.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00315 (480/152394) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.00489 (333/68040). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00446. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 227 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 22 AR gene
